The PRX and other Powermatic watches don't come with the typical regulating arm found in most mechanical watches. While there is a convoluted and admittedly pretty sketchy way to regulate it, it's not as straightforward as the typical arm. So for the most part, you're stuck with how fast or slow your watch runs, unless you send it back to a service center. Even then, they'd probably not do it.
One of best of the best. Between the Kamasu, Bambino and Maestro, they're got a solid lineup that prioritizes quality over publicity.
Even though I think it should be a good $200 less at MSRP I absolutely adore my World Map; it captures the aesthetic of 60s and 70s Japanese watches so well. It's also surprisingly versatile and goes well with tons of straps.
I don't use a watch roll because they're cost prohibitive; as much as I'd like to use one I can't currently justify spending over $40 for a thing I'd only use a handful of times a year.
When I do travel with multiple watches I use this little black box that came with my Seagull 1963, which can fit two (maybe three if I push it) timepieces inside of it, which I feel is the most amount I'd ever need on a trip of any length. Even if I were to be on the other side of the planet for a month or even a whole summer I wouldn't be the kinda guy who thinks he needs seven watches with him; most of my watches are GADA or GADA-adjacent.
Nixon. They're the "good guys" of the watch brand world; they know that they aren't redefining luxury and just want to make quality, versatile watches for young, hip and active people. My friend from college has a black PVD Time Teller with gold indices and hands, and I myself would like to get a gold one with a green dial.
